 NOTE: NO collapsing genchains. NO generator knowledge needed. No mapping knowledge (or indeed mapping at all) required. Extensible to higher ranks without problems. It doesn't matter whether the scale is a temperament at all.
+== Comparison of notations ==
+This section compares the different notations described above. As an example, the seven church modes (ionian, dorian, phrygian, etc) will be used.
